A Naked Lady and Sushi

My friend Leah took this picture!

I just got back from a heck of a trip--from SGF to KC to Wichita to STL to SGF. Today was really the first day I had a breather...

But let me tell you what I did the other night!! I ate sushi off a naked lady.

What, you ask?

Jim semed very interested when I told him this.

I went to this place called Nara (in Kansas City) with Lucy since it was her last weekend before moving to D.C. Apparently, it was the restaurant's one year anniversary, and they were celebrating. The place kind of reminded me of Kai in downtown, only with a bigger bar feel.

Anyway, I was seated when I turned around and saw a boob. It was a lady getting undressed to lay on a table. She had a robe on, but it just popped out. Then this guy put some banana leaves all over her to cover her up...

Long story short, I ate the sushi. What can I say? It was there...but does anyone else see this as kind of weird? I mean, the last thing I want to do is go to a place to eat raw fish and see a naked boob. Brings a whole new outlook to ordering tuna. Yes, I said it.

KC is calling...

Kiplinger named Kansas City one of the best cities for mid-level professionals.

Criteria? The 3 Ts--technology, talent, and tolerance...this boils down to presence of high-tech workers and businesses, the talent level of the workforce and the tolerance for all types of people. A fourth factor is economic growth.

This is nice news for me because I live and work around a bunch of St. Louis natives. I grew up in the KC viewing area, went to school at KU, interned and worked in Kansas City, lived on the Plaza...KC is a great place, and since my boyfriend is from St. Louis, this poses a problem. :)

I've been gone

I have been so busy lately, as most people are. I really don't have a lot to say, but I was getting tired of looking at my last post.

So since then and now...here's what I've done.

• Went to Kansas City, played blackjack. Lost.
• Hung out with my best friends Lucy and Leigh
• Started moving out of my house. Yup, finally leaving the Rountree neighborhood. It's been fun.
• Gave my beat-up Honda Civic to my parents. Now driving my mom's rollerskate. I like it.
• Helped plan a baby shower.
• Painted a kitchen. Tried to put glaze on the walls, too. Worried that it might look like someone threw up red wine, but my boyfriend assures me that it looks great.
• Started a new diet. My stomach hurts and I want to eat more bread.
